Didn't do much with my truck, got the cab back on the frame, along with the front end. Other than that, I've been printing shirts day and night.

I just finished installing a fresh rebuilt 305 into My 63 c-10, know I can get back to working on my 83 GMC 3/4 ton plow truck (I hate installing new brake lines).

Dadsredwagon · 10-30-2007, 10:16 PM

I messed with the steering a bit and hog clipped the blanket on the seat.

my wifes bugging me to fix the rear door on the house ;-)

Nice work! Gee and all I did was change the oil in the wife's van and hardwire her Garmin Nuvi.

64GMCHorsepower · 10-31-2007, 07:09 AM

I had to work at work all weekend.....I didn't even touch my truck........

BIG CTY · 10-31-2007, 07:28 AM

I touched my truck, drove it to the gas station and filled it up. Along with my 69 Impala and 70 Monte Carlo. With news of $90 a barrell oil fresh in my mind, and with the weather finally changing around here, I like to keep 'em full. My Impala mankes me sick, the gas gauge will read full and it'll still take 13 gallons

Didn't even get a chance to so much as look at the truck. Worked all weekend at the base airshow.

*LAFNATU* · 10-31-2007, 09:21 AM

Well I had to make an emergency trip to Idaho, so I thought i would hit the junk yards to see what they have, big waste of time their, WAY over priced. Then when i got home, the wife and i took out the Z28 to find the rear end trashed, the boy took it for a joy ride, cant blame him too much, if i was at his age and had access to a car like that i would have taken it too.... can you say Ferris Buller.... LOL....

*LILRED66* · 10-31-2007, 10:38 AM

It was a good weekend. I was finally able to get back to work on OLRED66. I had to put the project on hold for the past 5 months, due to being out of town on work assignment. It was good to get back to work on my '66 Chevy C20 Custom Camper. I hope you were able to work on your project this weekend also. Enjoy the photos.

Is that a booster bolted to a stoke cylinder? Mine looks just like that, without the booster, lol...

Brad:

Good morning and thanks for the inquiry. The picture is a factory power brake booster on my '66 Chevy C20 Custom Camper. This was a factory/dealer option available on the '64-'66 Chevy trucks. I have several trucks with the factory power brakes. This is a very nice upgrade for the standard four wheel drum brakes.

hey i want to no are then clears or they leds in your truck and if so where did you get them

SkylineNXS · 10-31-2007, 04:11 PM

Those are clear lenses with red LEDs in em, got em from lmc, go right into a stock socket. My wiring was gone, so i just spliced mew wiring into em, and taped off the connector.

LILRED, thats pretty cool, i think i might end up looking for one of those, ive got all drums and its ok, but needs a little more i think. Nice trucks by the way, i love em...

BRAD

Dadsredwagon · 10-31-2007, 09:59 PM

where can you get the booster? I see my auto zone sells em, but what about the the brackets?

65 on 24's · 11-15-2007, 11:21 PM
